split screen from two USB cameras

Hi all

Really like OpenCV and admire what is possible. For start, would like to make make simple split screen (vertical split) from two usb cameras. I have old 16:9 monitor, rpi 3 and two usb cameras which i would like to use to begin with OpenCV. For start, would like to have them merged and full screened on Raspberry Pi which is connected to monitor.

I understand there is so much surveillance software but i want to keep it live view, no recording, and to have it start as fast as possible when i click icon on raspberry,

Thanks!

I hope RPi 3 is strong enough, if not maybe go Intel NUC route. I'm hoping for 5-10fps at 720p resolution, hope it is doable on RPi. Maybe get RPi4? :)

Thanks!
